During the present study, a total of 675 moth specimens were collected from the study area which represented 112 species from 16 families and eight super families. Though much of the species has been reported earlier from other parts of India, 15 species were first records for the state of Kerala. The highest species richness was shown by the family Erebidae and the least by the families Lasiocampidae, Uraniidae, Notodontidae, Pyralidae, Yponomeutidae, Zygaenidae and Hepialidae with one species each. The results of this preliminary study are promising; it sheds light on the unknown biodiversity of Vagamon hills which needs to be strengthened through comprehensive future surveys.

In the recent past it has been observed that narrow-leaved ash seed yields have reduced, emphasising the importance of good health status of those collected, as they are used for seedling production and consecutive regeneration of forest stands or afforestation. Given that insects could be an important factor affecting ash seed health status, the aim of this research was to gain insight into the species being present and their frequency in the ash seeds. In total 2.500 narrow-leaved ash and 1.000 green ash seeds from seven different locations were screened for insect presence. Analysed seeds were categorized as undamaged, insect damaged or empty, and observed in- sect specimens were identified by morphological and molecular genetic analysis. Green ash seeds revealed higher insect infestation in comparison with native ash species, with weevil Lygniodes bischoffii being the most numerous pest found. Narrow-leaved ash seeds were mostly occupied by the native weevil species, L.

Dez. 1978 ISSN 0341-8391 Revision der orientalischen Bombycidae (Lepidoptera) Teil I: Die Ocinara-Gruppe Von Wolfgang Dierl Zoologische Staatssammlung München Abstract All the 31 known taxa of the generic group Ocinara from the Oriental region are dealt with in this paper. 22 species are described and figured, including 6 new genera, 7 new species and 2 new subspecies. The remaining taxa are synonymic names. The descriptions are mainly based on external and genitalic characters of the imago, partly on larval struc- tures. An account is given on the morphology, phylogeny and zoogeography of the group including the description of some very specialized structures in the male genitalia which probably are functioning as odorific organs. 1. Einleitung Während unserer Nepal-Expeditionen der Jahre 1962, 1964, 1967 und 1973 konnte eine kleine Anzahl von Exemplaren aus der Ocinara-Gruppe gesammelt werden. Die Bestimmung dieses Materials, basierend auf der üblichen Untersuchung der äußeren und inneren Merkmale, erbrachte ein überraschend unklares Ergebnis, das nach einer Revision der Gruppe rief. Es zeigte sich nämlich, daß nicht nur die Arten ungenügend definiert waren, sondern auch die Gattungszugehörigkeit in den meisten Fällen falsch war. So wurden nun die Typen der beschriebenen Taxa unter- sucht und die Ergebnisse führten zu einer völlig neuen Gruppierung mit Beschrei- bung neuer Gattungen und Arten.

About 134 families comprising 157, 000 species of living Lepidoptera, including the butterflies has been documented globally [2], holding around 17% of the world's known insect fauna. Estimates, however, suggest more species in the order [3]. Naturalists for convenience categorised moths into two informal groups, the macro moths having larger physical size and recency in evolution and micro moths [4] that are smaller in size and primitive in origin .

The pollination of two Hoya species has been studied previously, but little is known about the specific Arolium nature and interactions between flowermorphology, pollinators, and their environment. Here we investigate the Erebinae pollination of Hoya pottsii, where pollinaria are transferred onto several insects’ legs and arolia including moths Guide rail in the Erebidae family, ants, and a praying mantis. Hypopyra vespertilio (Erebidae, Erebinae) was the most Hoya carnosa Hoya pottsii effective at both carrying and depositing the pollinaria, Colobopsis leonardii (Formicidae) was shown to suc­ Hypopyra vespertilio cessfully insert only one pollinium whereas Hymenopus coronatus (Hymenopodidae) could only attach the pol­ linaria between its two euplantulae. Several Hoya species were used to compare the effectiveness of pollinaria removal and insertion, pollinator size which was correlated to strength, floral scent, and morphology of the guide rail. The floral scent was dominated by Linalool, Methyl benzoate and Benzaldehyde which are known to attract moth, other species displayed similar scents but also showed many different compounds. The effectiveness of a medium-sized moth in pollinating H. pottsii could be explained by the morphology of the guide rail which comprises a landing platform for the arolium.
